Wanting to try RPGs, Virtual Tabletop style? Below are some VT software packages currently available. All VTTs on this wikia haven't been added to this overview yet, for a full list on the wiki, see here If you know of any not listed below please create a page for them or contact me. You can also tlook at the [[to-do]] list.
October 2018: There exists a handful of new VTTs that arent mentioned on the wiki, but here are a few links that lists/compares a few of them, hopefully me or someone will ad them here eventually.
- recent reddit post with a list of VTTs by redditor u/Martinwuff
- a Google Doc comparing some VTTs by redditor by /u/po1tergeisha
- List of VTTs & map tools by [[battlegrounds-rpg-edition]]. Honorable mentioning as they actually have a comprehensive list of alternatives/competitors to their own product, big plus for integrity.

Thanks to heruca, the developer of Battlegrounds, for maintaining an excellent list of VTs, which has been used to assist in producing the above list.
I removed defunct and unavailable VTTs from the list and updated situation for the existing ones, hopefully will add more later.
I haven't tried it, but it looks great, it's called GM Forge and on Steam.
Yeah GM Forge have a page here, I just haven't updated this summary page with all the new additions.
I updated the BRPG info to show the permanent price drop and to reflect the fact that there won't be any further development on v1.x.
@Keikaku, Infrno should probably be deleted, too. It shut down in June 2018.
